3699264 - Latest People Profile - Unable to edit job information fields

Symptom

  • Customer not able to edit Job information field after release.
  • Standard weekly hours field is not editable though permission is granted.

Environment

Employee Central 
Employee Profile - Latest People Profile

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to employee's Job Data.
  2. Go to job information.
  3. Observe Standard weekly hours field is not editable.

Cause

  • Field Level Configuration for Visibility is set to "View"
  • In the latest People Profile, if a field’s Visibility attribute is set to View in the Data Model(BCUI), you cannot set the visibility to Edit using business rules and you can't edit this field even if you have the Edit role-based permission for this field. Similarly, if Data Model allows Edit but role-based permission restricts a role to View, the user will only view this field.

Resolution

To edit the field, please refer to the following:

  • Workaround: change the field from ESS/MSS: Take Action > Change Comp and Job info.
